- Research on social support and resilience in Parkinson's disease (PD) caregivers has been limited, even though these factors are important for other caregiver populations.
- A study involving 253 PD caregivers investigated the relationship between social support, resilience, and mental health symptoms, using a structural equation model.
- Results showed that higher social support led to greater resilience, which in turn reduced mental health symptoms, indicating that resilience plays a key role in how social support affects caregivers' well-being.
